Firearm possession lands Berlin man in prison

CONCORD - Berlin resident Jody P. Albert, 44, was sentenced to two months in prison for being a felon in possession of a firearm, federal prosecutors said.

Albert was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Concord. He had earlier pleaded guilty to the charge.

Authorities said Albert was convicted of felonies in Coos County Superior Court in 1997 and 2008. Yet in late 2011, the Berlin police and FBI determined he possessed a 12-gauge shotgun and 45/410-caliber pistol.

A Portsmouth man is heading to prison after a stealing from about 20 vehicles on the Seacoast during this year's Super Bowl and tossing some items in the trash at a church.
